Russia last night admitted it had defied the West and supplied Syrian president Bashar al-Assad with a batch of cruise missiles.


Despite warnings today that the country was in civil war and ongoing concerns over terror tactics used against civilians, Moscow will also go-ahead with training the dictator's troops to use the state-of-the-art weapons

Well if you end up going to war with Russia over this. Please for once, dont get the Brits involved. If you want a game of cloak and dagger with Ivan then good for you. But leave us Brits out of it.

We have been there done that and written a couple of books about it.

True, I have never denied that. But I think its a bit rich, criticising the Russians when the Americans are no better.

i'm not sure she was criticising them in isolation ...i kinda got the impression that she could see the two sides squaring up to each other and using syria as the ring .

Besides WW3 is gonna happen sooner or later. May as get on with it. And at least a nuclear winter will cool the place down a bit. So people can stop moaning about Global Warming. Be a bit of peace actually.

Yes well as long as we are left out of it, I dont really care. Unlike the Japanese, they WILL retaliate. The cold war was just a nuclear stand off, with a lot of cloak and dagger. Kinda gutted it was over when I joined the army, I could of left a lot sooner by defecting.

But anyway back to point, If you go all Horishima on there ass. They wont just sit there and take it.

I cant really see obama dropping a nuke to be honest.

Im concerend about our foreign policy as our relationship with russia seems to be deteriorating rapidly. I cant see how being on oposit sides of this is a good thing. Back to referring to my original comment about a proxy war.

Id prefer if we just stayed out of all together. But I know some people would say ah you just want to let assad kill his own people off in a mass murder. < our msm would and does say that.

Unfortnaltly from what ive learned the last decade about the middle east makes me think nothing we do is goin to fix the problem.

I suppose Im becoming a little bit isolationalist over the whole thing.

Why does Russia like Assad? I find this a bit puzzling.

Im not really sure. I do know that it seems that our relationship with russia has gone to the s***.

I read they kicked out USAID, then recently to stop Americans to adopt russian children and now this.

Id like to know what has gone on myself to cause this.
